the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of
batteries and chargers.
•
Charge the battery packs only in CRAFTSMAN chargers.
DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
•
Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in
•
locations where the temperature may reach or
exceed 104 °F (40 °C) (such as outside sheds or metal
buildings in summer). For best life store battery packs in
a cool, dry location.
NOTE: Do not store the battery packs in a tool with
the trigger switch locked on. Never tape the trigger
switch in the ON position.
Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is
•
severely damaged or is completely worn out. The
battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and
materials are created when lithium-ion battery packs
are burned.
If battery contents come into contact with the skin,
•
immediately wash area with mild soap and water. If
battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open
eye for 15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical
attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is composed of
a mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
Contents of opened battery cells may cause
•
respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If symptoms
persist, seek medical attention.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be
flammable if exposed to spark or flame.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Never attempt to open the
battery pack for any reason. If the battery pack case
is cracked or damaged, do not insert into the charger.
Do not crush, drop or damage the battery pack. Do
not use a battery pack or charger that has received a
sharp blow, been dropped, run over or damaged in
any way (e.g., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer,
stepped on). Damaged battery packs should be
returned to the service center for recycling.
Storage Recommendations
1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry, away
from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold.
2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully
charged battery pack in a cool dry place out of the
charger for optimal results.
nOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely
depleted of charge. The battery pack will need to be
recharged before use.
The RBRC® Seal
The RBRC® (Rechargeable Battery Recycling
Corporation) Seal on the nickel cadmium,
nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries
(or battery packs) indicates that the costs
to recycle these batteries (or battery
packs) at the end of their useful life have already been
paid by CRAFTSMAN. In some areas, it is illegal to place
spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion
batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream and
the Call 2 Recycle® program provides an environmentally
conscious alternative.
Call 2 Recycle, Inc., in cooperation with CRAFTSMAN and
other battery users, has established the program in the
United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of
spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion
batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve
natural resources by returning the spent nickel cadmium,
nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries to an
authorized service center or to your local retailer for
recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center
for information on where to drop off the spent battery.

Transportation
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry
the battery pack so that metal objects can
contact exposed battery terminals. For example,
do not place the battery pack in aprons, pockets, tool
boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose
nails, screws, keys, etc. Transporting batteries
can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals
inadvertently come in contact with conductive
materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the
like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous
Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit
transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes in
carry-on baggage UNLESS they are properly protected
from short circuits. So when transporting individual
battery packs, make sure that the battery terminals
are protected and well insulated from materials that
could contact them and cause a short circuit.
Important Safety Instructions for All
Battery Chargers
WARNING: Read all safety warnings,
instructions, and cautionary markings for the
battery pack, charger and product. Failure to
follow the warnings and instructions may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with
•
any chargers other than a CRAFTSMAN charger.
CRAFTSMAN chargers and battery packs are specifically
designed to work together.
These chargers are not intended for any uses other
•
than charging CRAFTSMAN rechargeable batteries.
Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock
or electrocution.
Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
•
Pull by the plug rather than the cord when
•
disconnecting the charger. This will reduce the risk of
damage to the electric plug and cord.
Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not
•
be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected
to damage or stress.
Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely
•
necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in
risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
